Seriously, I think you can justtify owning several of

the machines have expansion slots (like the Apple ][ or the PDP11) and
you've got a lot of cards you want to play with. I'm pretty sure I've got
far too many unibus cards (even with DB11 bus repeaters) for a single
machine. And I wonder how useful 2 DX11's (I do mean DX11, not RX11) are
on the same machine.
Isn't a DX11 an IBM channel interface? Originally a big cabinet with a lot of
flip chips and lamps? I've seen two, working.
